You don't 'believe' in evolution, you conclude it from the available data.

Quote from Charles Darwin " the most obvious and gravest objection which can be urged against my theory, and that it accounted for the fact that all the greatest geologists and the most eminent paleontologists have unanomously, often vehemenantly, maintained the immutability of the species. I could quote a few simlar quotes frm some of todays as well. That being said I think it is a reasonble theory. What theory doesn't require some degree of faith or the one proposing it wouldn't bother to investigate. I think it's good to look at both sides of any argument. Certainly no one would want to be on trial with a judge who wouldn't let one side or the other present it's case. Truth isn't injured by honest enquiry.

Evolution is a theory not a fact. Belief in anything requires faith on the part of the believer

Common sense

It takes great faith. There is no scientific proof. It will always be called a theory and those who "believe" it will always be using words like, "could, might, may , perhaps, etc" They cannot honestly say that "It is proven".
They don't know the source of matter. They haven't a clue as to how "life" came into being. Even with all our technology and knowledge WE cannot create "life" from natural elements....yet they believe that it came about by "accident".
It is a religion and not a science. It becomes a scientific FACT if they could prove it. ....which they know they can't . So they try of put out enough propoganda that the foolish might beleive it and fund them some more.

Believing in the theory that has by far the most evidence to support it is just common sense.

Common sense and a little time to learn the facts.

Well, there is scientific evidence that proves evolution. It doesn't take faith or common sense to recognize proof. right?

It takes a willingness to objectively look at facts, to educate yourself in multiple disciplines of science (you don't have to be an expert, mind you) and a freedom from strict, repressive dogma. Once you examine the evidence, the conclusion is obvious.

Evolution must be the topic of the day.
